The ever increasing gap between processor and memory speed, sometimes referred to as the Memory Wall problem [42], has a very negative impact on performance. This mismatch will be...
Recent research shows that the high occupancy of Coherence Controllers (CCs) is a major performance bottleneck in scalable shared-memory multiprocessors. In this paper, we propose...
Abstract. High end routers are targeted at providing worst case throughput guarantees over latency. Caches on the other hand are meant to help latency not throughput in a tradition...
Local interconnect architectures are at a cusp in which advances in throughput have come at the expense of power and latency. Moreover, physical limits imposed on dissipation and ...
Improvements in semiconductor technology have made it possible to include multiple processor cores on a single die. Chip Multi-Processors (CMP) are an attractive choice for future...
